Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
In a detailed summary of a skin irritation study (reliability score 2; not to GLP), 3-trimethoxysilylpropane-1-thiol was not irritating to the skin of New Zealand white rabbits.
Executive summary:

Undiluted 3-trimethoxysilylpropane-1-thiol (0.5 ml) was applied to the intact (shaved) skin of six New Zealand white rabbits for four hours under an occlusive dressing. The dressings were then removed, the skin washed and the skin reactions observed for up to 14 days. None of the rabbits had any signs of skin irritation, and no other clinical signs of toxicity were observed. It was therefore concluded by the study authors that the test substance was not irritating to the skin.
